The P&H Payload system provides accurate, reliable payload measurements, coupled with simple system calibration, that allow your operators to optimize their loading processes.

The system provides to the shovel operator the weight, in tons, of the material in the dipper. Since there is a target payload based on the haul truck’s size, this information allows the operator to load the truck – every time – to the exact target payload.

Since the dipper payload is shown in real time, this empowers the operator to adjust the haulage loading process immediately when non-target payloads are shown.

The P&H Payload system provides the following key information:

Current/last dipper payload, in tons

Trended dipper payloads

Current truck loading time in seconds

Current deviation from target

Current truck accumulated tons

Current cycle time in seconds

Swing angle, in degrees

Total tons this shift, in whole tons

Tons per hour of operation this shift

Average truck loading time this shift

Average truck tons this shift

Average cycle time this shift

Tons/hour of operation this shift

Payload with Pin system

The Payload with Pin system measures payloads directly using our patented instrumented pin and load cell mounted in the boom point sheave. The load cell measures hoist, dig, and suspended load forces directly, correlating the data to dipper payload weight.

Integration with other health monitoring systems

The P&H Payload system can be integrated with our universal dispatch interface and our PreVail remote health monitoring system for remote monitoring, further enhancing your ability to optimize loading and manage assets.
